Practix Innovative Workout

Non Equity Assistance in 2018
Practix develops an activity tracking system for gyms, using an IoT tracking device with real-time data analytics done by AI and machine learning algorithms. We offer the gym customer automatic, real-time logging of their workout and data-based analytics and metrics for their workout. Gym members receive a wristband which can connect to any current gear in the gym through scanning our NFC patch. The wristband tracks user’s workout data and runs it through our algorithms. The output is presented through the Practix app and website where both gym operator and the customer can see the detailed information about their workout.
